With the temperatures dropping rapidly and the weather changing before our eyes, it’s officially time to layer up in a throw blanket at home. Whether you’re hosting guests at home this month or simply looking to decorate your space in true seasonal form, try turning to a cozy throw as a solution. We’ve curated a few decorating ideas which will allow you to bring this autumn staple into your humble home.

Grey and mauve: For a soft and simple colour palette, turn to subtle and sweet shades of grey and mauve to complete your space. The look of fluffy ivory, pale mauve and cream cushions can flatter a dove grey throw blanket. Turn to fresh flowers, a slender white coffee table and a neutral colour scheme to truly emphasize the soft tones of the throw.

Pink and white: Turn to softness and femininity as you accessorize your living room this season. Place a shaggy white blanket on a wicker chair, and add printed pillows and a pale pink cushion. The sweet pastel tones help to create a relaxing, sanctuary like environment, right at home.

Neutral tones: If you prefer minimalism to colour, try decorating a cream-coloured or off-white sofa with knitted throws in neutral tones. Shades of ivory, grey, beige and brown can complement a light-coloured couch perfectly. Meanwhile, a patchwork pattern turns up the visual interest and can bring an otherwise mild colour palette to life.
